N1 Service Provisioning System 4.1 User's Guide

Giving Authorized Users Access to the N1 Service Provisioning System Software

Before you begin consider these questions:

The table below will help you plan your management of users and groups.

Table 2–3 Managing Users

Question 

Action 

Which users will be using the system? Will users need individual accounts or generic accounts that they will share? 

Define each user account you plan to use. 

See Managing User Accounts and User Groups.

Will different groups of users be accessing the provisioning software? Would it be convenient to define user groups with different access privileges, rather than assign privileges on a user-by-user basis? 

Define user groups and use the permissions assigned to each group to control permissions for users. (All the users in a group receive the privileges granted to that group.) 

See Managing User Accounts and User Groups.
